Actually, people often love to be lied to… as long as it makes them feel good… or less bad.
One has to realize that facts are epiphenomenons. Emotions and moods are the really deeper structures, and the computations they effect give rise to neural networks themselves (where the ideas are!)
See: “Emotion plans logic” in author’s website

An example: A vociferous savage from Haiti migrated to Quebec, where he ended writing novellas. That got him to the French Academy (which has only 40 baboons, no more). I saw him the other day vociferous on TV, saying all Africans have to run over Europe, because Europe colonized Africa. This is a demented reasoning, no higher than the worst the Nazis officially held. Indeed, it’s FALSE: I spent my childhood in Africa. There were basically NO Europeans. If one saw 2,000 people, one was lucky to see one white… And that meant generally a Vietnamese or Lebanese…

“Decolonization” is the worst enemy of Africa, because, as it is presented it inverts the causality (by presenting what is superior, a more advanced civilization, as inferior, and demographic invasion as superior) . Deplutocratization is the friend of Africa.

One of them sees Mexican migration into the US a just retaking of the land that was annexed by the US as a result of the Mexican-American War of 1848. Under this “to recover what belongs to them” logic, I felt that the host should also offer to vacate his house and turn it over to a Native American.
